A Negro Maniac Attempts tho Life OF
South CnrolIun's Governor.
COLUMBIA, 8. O., Feb. l5.-The life Of
Governor Richardson was endangered
yesterday by negro madman, who de.
manded money or blood. Baxter Dewalt
a black Hercules, walked up to the private
secretary and asked for the Governor
When asked his business Dswalt said tha,
he had been sent 10 the penitentiary BY a
Judge who told him that at the expiration
OF Ills sentence the State would be bis and
all the officials would obey him. "Now,n
said he, II own the State Bank and l wish
the Governor to write ont check for the
money In 1t or there will be trouble"
The maniac would not be put off, and
for q time, with largo club, intimidated
tho Secretary, who was in such pouition
that he could get no help. The police
were telephoned Tor. Baxter said that he
had but ono time die, and would loso
his lie il necessary to get his money or
keep his word and kill the Governor. The
negro porters around the State House
would not 60 near the lunatic. After
making motion as II to attack tho pri.
vate secretary, he left the office and pro.
ceeded to that Of the Secretary OF State.
While there the police arrived. They tried
to capture Dewalt, and terrible struggle
took place. The negro yelled in the mos!
terrible manner, and the strength he dis
played was appalling. 'e t
Finally, by the combined strength OF a
half.dozen men, Dewalt was secured and
taken to the guard house. On bis person
were found box OF cartridges and o
loaded revolver. II he could have seen

says he firmly holds to every doctrine Of
The Evangelical faith, and holds the posi-.
tlon that no man need be finally lost for
lack OF gracious opportunity Of salvation
through Christ, and only ior refusing. He
holds himself free to consider as legiti.
mate such opinions not contrary to the
Scriptures as are entertained among Evan.

a lsg Suit In EIuity-What Thcy Expect
to Gain.
New YoRH, Feb. 15,-The Harlem Com
mons claimants, about whom go much
has been written in the last few years,
have at last begun the legal contest for
recovery Of the properly which they
claim to own in the upper part Of this
city. A stupendona bill in equity has
bsen filed in the U. S. Circuit Court by
Jas. H. McCreery, Of Pittsburgh, repre-
sontin2 Simon 7. Morgan, OF Greensboro,
Ky, the complainant, and about 1,4O0
other alleged heirs scattered all over the
country. Mr.. Morgan was selected as
complainant because it is claimed he is
one of the most direct heirs OF the original
owners.
The name Of Rev. W. r. Covert, of
Pittsburgh, the attorney-in.fact Of Mr.,
Morgan, appears on the bill, but the law
ye.s in the case are Mr.. McCreery and
Judge Bredin, Of Pittsburgh, and FEEDER
lex Baker, OF this city. The first argu.
ment will bs made before Judge Wal.
lace on February IS, by which time it is
expected the defendants will also appear.
Mr.. McCreery thinks that by the time the
proposed commission has completed its
work and eiited cut tho real heirs, the
number Of claimants will be reduced to
nearly two-thirds.
The lawyers are to get oue.third OF all
sha. is realized. They expect TO get
enough out OF ths,cass to pRy them hand
somely for their trouble aud give each
claimant about $4,000. It is not expected
that sny Of the suits will bs brought to
trial. A compromise, it is thought, will
be effected in oil caeea.

undersigned COMMITTEES to write to you,
expressing the warm approval OF the club
OF the resolution introduced by you in the
House last Wednesday relative to the
Canadian difficulty. This we do with
pleasure. The fair fame and unimpeach-
able honor OF the great American Nation
must not be tho object OF British insult
and prattle. We feel pleased that you
have acted 30 wisely, and believe that
you voiced the sentiment OF the people Of
the State. West Virginia has reason to
bs proud OF the framer OF such terse,
pointed and patriotic paper. War is moi
desired, but let us have war rather than
that the ilag that never yet has been dis
honored or defeated, shall trail in the
dust. The Democratic administration is
bad enough. but English ofliciousness and
braggodocio should be repelled. ~
This club admires your spirit and feels
that 60 long as you remain in the LsgiH-
lsture the dignity OF the American people
will always be upheld, and the principles
Of the grand old Republican party main
tanned. Very Respectfully Yours,
